Open Art Studio - Artist of the Month
August 2026
Louise Lau
Originally from Hong Kong, Louise Lau resumed her studies in watercolor and acrylic painting in 2023 under artist Dave Chung at the CCM Centre in Canada. Since 2006, she has regularly participated in group art exhibitions alongside her instructor and peers. Her paintings were selected for the 2nd Vancouver Women’s Art Recognition Biennial Exhibition in 2007 and the Seymour Art Gallery in 2008.
When her instructor moved back to Hong Kong, Louise maintained her dedication by attending his intensive summer classes during his brief annual visits to Canada. While her instructor absence for eleven months every year, Louise initially struggled with motivation in painting. She found renewed inspiration when her painting friend, Josephine introduced her to the Bonsor 55+ Art Group. Today, she thrives within this vibrant community of fellow artists.
